home time is done...
so i had a good time here in kansas, got to see andrew quite a bit, saw some friends, and my great grandma. oh yeah, got ao OK job offer too. not much to start, but it's a merit shop and, along with my CDL i have skills they're intrested in, so raises will come as fast or as slow as i earn them. as much as i need money, i'll earn them. i'll have to do the over the road thing for a month or 2 more, mom still needs to get a job before i move. but i'm desperate to get back here for grandma and of course, andrew. speaking of which, i think his mom and her family know how badly they fucked up. they're being VERY nice right now. mainly i figure they've realized that the alternative, as in andrew's only father figure being the fuck-up his mom married, isn't too great. not when his real father is such a great guy.... lol. couple that with the fact that they've been unfair to him by alienating me, not to mention the unfairness to me and i think they know that if/when i go to court, i'll get a favorable judgement.
so, this shit with england will end, not soon enough, but i can get out of captivity and i know my "guru" a friend i made while driving is going to do the same. in fact, he's talking about a company based in tulsa. i told him to move there.... i we can hang out on his hometime (and i can show him around.... poor bugger needs laid. bad. mormon or not. lol.) grandma's house is still a mess. i didn't make enough money to get the power and water turned on, so i wasn't able to get much done. to hot, bad lighting, no water t really get things clean.... yeah. but oh well. if i can't get out before then, i plan to come back at the end of october, so it'll be easier then. and maybe i can get shit turned on.
also, i've been staying with R the whole time i've been here. she and i have almost nothing in common. we still argue, the only difference being we argue face to face. but maybe all the differences make it that much better. ok, so the arguing sucks, but it's all little shit. her kids, well, the little one loves me, the 15 \yr old girl and 11 yr old boy are withholding judgement i think. maybe they're just happy i'm not their dad. the 13 yr old.... he's confused. he doesn't get it. he's already put some questions to his mom that were, maybe not out of line, but just a little..... i don't know. he lives in a double standard world.... he was his mommy's boy til the divorce then his world was turned upside down. even after not only seeing her take beatings for him, and CALLING THE COPS HIMSELF, he blames her for everything. i think puberty and divorse and all these changes have really messed him up. that, or he just needs his narrow ass whooped. he's a bright kid. almost as bright as andrew. maybe more. but i didn't here about him being asked by DUKE FUCKING UNIVERSITY to take either the ACT or SAT test.... just to see how he does. my kid is SCARY smart. tested in math at a 12.9th grade level. wow.
anyways, i'm willing to see how things turn out with her when i get back. i think living in seperate towns will help. or not. who knows. it's only 13 miles away.
well, that's all i've got. everyone that reads this has my number now, K, i sent it to you on yahoo. hope ya got it. though i know no one will call..... you all suck! LOL! just kidding. a text would be cool.... let me know how things are going (though i've read back a couple days on the journals.... so i know what's happening for the last little bit.
take care all. i know i'm trying to.
